"Hello, my name is Pauline and I have been told that I have anxiety, as I had a lack of confidence at school and was nervous and I have a low self-esteem now.  But can you tell me what type of help, or therapy that I need now. I was shy as a child and I had a Father who shouted at me and bullied me a lot at home, even hitting me.  He died just last year, as he was getting old, but he was constantly nasty to both my Mother and me at home over the years.

A lady who has dealt with people in the past, whom I met by accident by her talking to me at the bus stop and then seeing her sometime later has been trying to help me, but she discussed my situation and finances with someone else she met outside and they have discussed me finances together.  She has also taken the lady to the place where I am moving and she bragged that she had lived in a bigger house than this.  She has also remarked that I am a Jew and that they hold onto their money.  Also she compares me to her own daughter a nd asks have you passed the exams that she has passed and mentioned the passes.  I said no and that I just passed a few exams here and there.  Well then she said you do not deserve a certain job, after the other lady had told her that I was looking for a £40,000.00 pound a year job and before she mentioned the amount was only £12,000.00.  She had also mentioned that now she wishes that she had not helped me and that she will not be helping me any more when I move.  The other lady muttered let's shut her up and that there are better girls than me about.  A man that gives all the three of us a lift home has said no you don't spend much money, but also wanted to borrow up to £800,00.00 from me, as he has overspent his money.

Someone told me that she should not compare herself with you, as you are an individual person and hers are other issues and to keep away from her.

She always sits and talks about her troubles at home and her daughter and son-in-law not talking to her to the other lady in front of me and then says something like she suffers delusions like you. she talks about her daughter and then someone out being a bad Mother and yet she has had a son on drugs and her husband as well.What help do I need and should I just keep away from her. Thank you"
